I think this market does not get it. There is an oil crisis worse than the ones in the 70's coming right at us. The market is like a bug flying toward the windshield of a car on a highway. How could I be wrong?

Two regional officials with knowledge of the ongoing diplomacy have confirmed to CBS News that, pending Iran's approval, the terms in the draft memorandum of understanding include:
A 60-day extension of the current ceasefire.
Iran immediately reopening the Strait of Hormuz and taking steps to ensure traffic returns to pre‑war conditions within 30 days.
Iran and the U.S., together with their allies, declaring that all military operations on every front, including Lebanon, end immediately and permanently. They also commit not to start any war against each other and to refrain from threatening or using force.
Iran reaffirming that it will never develop nuclear weapons.
Iran agreeing that its stockpile of enriched uranium will be disposed of under a mechanism that both sides will agree on.
Issues of Iran's frozen financial assets and sanctions against the regime will be dealt with based on Iran's compliance with the former points. https://t.co/zpJQGmfgCV
@VanIsleInvestor Although the jawboning from the president works every time, common sense eventually takes hold as investors rebid the prices back up. Ultimately Iran will have to be paid off, probably with transit fees, before the strait is safe for transit. Israel will remain a loose cannon.
@garquake Been collecting 10% annual dividend on $CJ since 2022. Makes a big difference to me, but does not move it far up your chart by adding dividends. Now wish I kept Absurdian Energy.

$BTI payout ratio is now down to a comfortable 69%. Forward dividend 5.1%; forward p/e 11.8. With growth in smokeless products, it appears it is no longer a declining industry.
Commodity market guru Jeff Currie on the tech-energy relationship:
"The only 2 industries that matter to the world are tech and energy. You got to turn on the lights, and you got to innovate. So, all we do is rotate between those 2 sectors."
IT'S TIME TO ROTATE INTO ENERGY.
